Izaiya 31:1-9
31 Dzedze kuna ale anaenda ku Ejitu toera kasaka ciphedzo,+Kuna ale ananyindira makavalo,+Kuna ale ananyindira ngolo zizinji za nkhondo,Pontho kuna ale ananyindira mphambvu za makavalo a nkhondo.
Mbwenye iwo nee asasaka ciphedzo kuna Wakucena wa Izraeli,Pontho iwo nee asasaka Yahova.
2 Iye ndi waudziwisi, pontho anadzabweresa nyatwa,Iye anadzakwanirisa mafalace.
Iye anadzatcunyusa nsoka wa anyakucita pyakuipa,Pontho anadzatcunyusa ale anaphedza anyakucita pyakuipa.+
3 Aejitu nee ndi Mulungu, mbwenye ndi anthu ene pyawo;Makavalo awo si auzimu tayu, mbwenye ndi aunyama.+
Yahova angafuthula djanja yace,Onsene anapereka ciphedzo anadzagwegweduka,Pontho ale anaphedzwa anadzagwa;Onsene anadzafa pa ndzidzi ubodzi ene.
4 Thangwi Yahova andipanga:
“Ninga nkhalamu ingʼono na yamphambvu yakuti isalira toera kutsidzikiza nyama idaphata iyo,Mu ndzidzi wakuti akumbizi azinji asacemerezana toera kuithamangisa,Iyo mbikhonda gopa mafala awoPeno kuthuswa na uviyaviya wawo,Munjira ibodzi ene, Yahova wa anyankhondo anadzabwera kudzamenya nkhondoToera kutsidzikiza Phiri ya Sioni na nthunda yace.
5 Yahova wa anyankhondo anadzatsidzikiza nzinda wa Yerusalemu,+ ninga pinacita mbalame inamburuka toera kutsidzikiza anace.
Iye anadzautsidzikiza mbaupulumusa.
Iye anadzauombola mbaukoya.”
6 “Imwe mbumba ya Izraeli, bwererani kuna Ule adasandukira imwe mbamunʼdawira kakamwe.+
7 Thangwi pa ntsiku ineyi, mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi wa imwe anadzataya alungu ace akusowa basa a parata na a ouro, ale adacita imwe na manja anu mbakucitisani kudawa.
8 Anthu a ku Asirya anadzaphiwa na supada yakuti nee ndi ya munthu;Iwo anadzadyiwa na supada, mbwenye tayu ya munthu.+
Anadzathawa thangwi ya supada,Pontho aphale awo anadzaphatiswa basa yakukakamizwa.
9 Mwala wawo unadzazambazika thangwi yakugopa,Pontho atsogoleri awo anadzagopa kakamwe thangwi ya cidzindikiro,” alonga Yahova,Wakuti ceza cace ciri mu Sioni, pontho wakuti moto wace wakupisa kakamwe uli mu Yerusalemu.
